I want to make sure the order of the cylinders in the 2006 Buick Lucerne cxl v8 to make sure I have the correct one replaced. It codes a misfire in cylinder #3.
The 4.6 engine should be the same as Cadillac, so the odd cylinders are next to the windshield. Number 3 would be second from the passenger side.
Thanks. I asked at OReilly\'s and the drawing shows that too. Unfortunately, the guy who worked on it, replaced the opposite one of that in the front. When I tried to tell him, he got annoyed and told me I don\'t know what I\'m talking about. Neither do the idiots at OReilly\'s.. Going to the dealer tomorrow.

That is not necessarily correct-if the car sits all the time, parasitic drain on the battery will eventually kill even a new battery. Telling someone that a car has to be driven 1000 miles a month to maintain the battery is not a solution-if you don't drive alot, get a trickle charger ($good one is $30, one that works can be found for $10) that you can plug in and keep hooked up to the battery to keep it fresh. Another way is to get a solar panel charger (1 1/2 watt, about $20 at Harbor Freight) and put the panel on the dashboard, and the other end into the cigarette lighter socket in the dashboard. A third solution is to buy a deep cycle battery (Optima) that can be fully drained hundreds of times yet will recover and work properly-these are expensive ($175), but out perform conventional batteries that die if fully discharged a few times. You could also install a remote starter and periodically start the car, letting it run for 15 minutes-about $200

Ok this may be something smal that may be simple to fixs; your plugs are in the wrong cylinder?

SOURCE: I have a 2006 Buick Lucerne CXS and I'm wondering
There are 2 different engines that came in the Lucerne in 2006 and I am not sure which one the CXS had. In any case below are pictures of both engines as well as locations. If you have the 3.8 liter (6 cylinder) engine you can add coolant directly to the radiator in the spot marked "A". But on your regular fluid checks you want to make sure that where the "B" is marked that the overflow tank there has fluid up to the line that says "full". If you have the 4.6 liter (8 cylinder) engine the overflow tank and where you fill up the radiator are the same (location "A") so that is the location you would fill the radiator as well as check to make sure there is coolant to the "full" line on the tank on your regular fluid checks, When you look at the pictures below you will understand easier. I hope this helps and good luck.

SOURCE: Trying to change a thermostat
If you are referring to the thermostat for the radiator fan. You would need the correct socket wrench size or just the correct wrench size to get it out. You will know it is bad when the fan turns on immediately after cold start or even if it the temp gauge is at its lowest when the engine has been switched on. Otherwise it could be a bad fuse or relay for the fan if it does not turn on at any condition.
For AC thermostat. It is a lot more work as you will removed dashboard components and return things. First things out last ones in.
